"I'm happy to report that the stories in Hair Lit Vol.1, deliver the goods." Hair Lit Vol. One gets some Goodreads love. And likes it. A lot.

And big thanks to the inestimable Joey Poole for that. Excerpt? Word.

"I'm happy to report that the stories in Hair Lit Vol.1, deliver the goods. Some of them, like Chip Cheek's deceptively light-hearted "Twisted Sister Makes a Comeback" and Ben Tanzer's Bon Jovi-hating "Dead or Alive" examine the ethos of the era. Others, like Nick Ostdick's "True Hair" and Ryan W. Bradley's "The Truth About Fingering" find inspiration in loosely fictionalizing song lyrics. Still others, like Megan Stielstra's devastating "Heart's Not Metal" and Susannah Felts' "Training" tell stories from the era with the music thumping away in the background as a soundtrack."
